The Makita 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Portable Band Saw (model XBP02TX) delivers cordless metal cutting power for a range of applications. The XBP02TX has a Makita-built high torque motor and a compact design with less weight, as well as convenience features like variable speed and a built-in LED light. It is ideal for faster cutting through Unistrut, all thread, channel, corrugated, conduit, pipe, sheet metal, square tubing and more. The kit includes two 18-Volt LXT 5.0Ah batteries and each reach a full charge in only 45-minutes.

Makita 18-Volt Lithium-Ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls. Star Protection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18-Volt LXT and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside. This Promotion also comes with a bonus BL1850B 18V LXT Lithium-Ion 5.0Ah Battery.

Portable band saw works great!!

As you tension the blade, you can see the body/case bending. The smaller model I actually returned because the blade started to cut the flimsy case. Wish it ran on 2 batteries, and had metal reinforcement for the blade tension, not plastic.

They seem to be lasting longer then the 3.0 I have. Not happy with the charging time, it states it’s a quick charger, but takes an hour to recharge the batteries.

Caleb Parker (verified owner) –
It has so much power and last so long, of course it is new. But my son has Makita and they have worked good for him for a long time, that’s why I switched to Makita.
